Paper Abstract:
|
Computer self-efficacy is one of the most important construct in Information Systems research. Over the years, IS researchers have debated about the multifaceted nature. In spite of the extensive research, we content that for information systems specifically, the nomological net capturing the various self-efficacy dimension are not covered. The focus of this paper is to outline such a nomological net, providing arguments for the missing components. We argue that four distinct types of computer self-efficacy exists. Using data gathered from a training session, we illustrate how these constructs are not only theoretically distinct but also have a distinct measurement item set. Implications of this research are discussed at the end. |
